View Poll Results: The American government's response to the situation in Darfur should be to...
do nothing.
4
22.22%
send humanitarian aid.
7
38.89%
send logistical support for armed forces from other countries and organizations.
But at this time we're stuck in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Aid is being redirected and stolen by various factions...reports of genocide have been published...and its turning into a nice breeding ground for Islamic radicals...
So the next choice would be to send in logistical support.
To bad we can't recruit the Hessian's like the British did back in 1776...
Its amazing that Darfur is still twisting in the wind...last year this was a topic for discussion...unfortunately it seems we havn't made much progress.

The whole continent of Africa is a disaster. There is not one healthy nation on the continent. If the bonfire is put out in Darfur/Sudan, where next? Maybe there is no correct answer.

Wow we agree!
I say send logistics. Let some other countries find out what its like to "help" people.

I picked logistical support only because of our ongoing committments. If we had the werewithall and accurate info, I'd say send the B52's over there and bomb the perpetrators into oblivion. The problem is do we know who the good and bad guys are?

Shouldn't be too hard...the bad guys are the ones on the camels.
